I have an odd question. I have had this SUV for eight years. It has 130,000 miles. Other than one set of front brake pads, one battery, two rear shocks, and two sets of tires, I have had absolutely no repairs necessary on this car. Is that unusual? :

Hi there,

It is the luck of the draw, some cars are virtually trouble free and others burn a hole in their owners hip pocket. Now touch wood, because you don't know whats around the corner.

I feel your pride in your Pathfinder. I have a 2000 Pathfinder and it has 154,000 miles on it. And I haven't had any repairs other than tires, radiator flush, and fluid changes as required. But it has been a jewel to me. I am however fixing to have to replace the two serpetine belts and power steering FACTORY belts to stop the squeaking. I wanted to reply to your question, if you'll even read it. But take me advice, with 130,000 miles on your truck, REPLACE THE TIMING BELT! And HURRY! Bad timing is a bad thing!
